I'm Rolly (rhymes with "jolly"), and I make roller coasters out of polygons!

Started as a side project to test out Blender 5.0 features, but then it just kept going! (Berserker at Kings Dominion)

Tools are almost all finished! Now I'm rebuilding Batman: The Ride for the 3rd time, but having a much better time this go round! #Blender

I fixed my support tool and VERY happy with the results! It's also free to download if you want to try it out for yourself. rollygon.com/tools/bm-sup...

Construction has started!! I've spent all year making the tools for this model, now it's time to actually get started building it in #Blender

It's very manual at the moment, but it's coming together nicely!

Any ideas on how to get the z-axis to scale on only one end point of the track/curve? Using #Blender 4.2 Geometry Nodes (with array and curve deform modifier nodes).

Uhhhhh whoops 😅

It's been going well so far. I thought I'd be a bit rusty

I think it's time to get back into #Blender and start building trains again!

Finishing out the day with a ride on the second level of the carousel!

PHYSICS TEST! I finally figured out how to make the physics in Blender actually work for this. The sphere is a bit hard to see, but once I get to the train building stage, it's a WRAP!!

*Through gritted teeth* I... can... finish this one. Almost... there! The sooner I can finish this, the sooner I can mess around with adding a train in the future 👀

Today's work on Fahrenheit. I forgot how weird these supports are so this took longer than expected, but progress was made!

Having a blast reviving this project! And excited again to actually finish now that I can build the geometry nodes I need in #Blender way easier now. Just a little bit more to go!

Looking to finish this one! Not much more to do, so not sure why this one fell off.

I always think I'm being too ambitious by starting up so many different projects at the same time. But then I remember being ambitious is what made me start to create in the first place!

Be ambitious. Have unfinished projects. It all still counts.

⚠️ just a reminder for those feeling like they're falling behind:
➕ you can become an artist without in- / formal education
➕ you can be self-taught if you put effort into it
➕ you do not *need* a mentor / teacher to do art

while the things above can help you reach your goals, you can do it solo 💕

I’ve been having a bit too much fun with making this menu icon! It also 100% CSS.

Taking long web development hiatuses sure does make it difficult when jumping back in. But I can do this, I can do this, I can do this, I— 🔥💻🔥

Designing stuff sucks. Too bad a part of me enjoys it enough to constantly be doing it lol
February 3, 2025 at 7:55 PM
I thought of a new ride concept…but instead of building it, I made this instead! I’m sure I’ll keep iterating it as I build.

"you can do this by using blender geometry nodes"
*looks up a geometry node guide*
"here is a 2 hour guide on making the cube move a bit to the right"
